No indication this is a currently extant suburb of Ras Al Khaimah

Two citations have been added to the article, neither of which confirm that this is a currently extant "suburb of Ras Al Khaimah". This 1985 citation says that Al Mataf was an area of settlement at the port of Julfar (now Ras Al Khaimah) from the mid 14th C to the mid 17th C. This 2001 citation says it was a walled-in area of the hut settlement Julfar (now Ras Al Khaimah) prior to the 17th C. Both of them speak of archaeology but not of current existence.
